Sourcing candidates
We advertise the opening through all relevant job boards, our own website, legal publications, and professional networks to attract potential hires and develop a strong employer brand that promotes your EVP for legal professionals
Screening and shortlisting
We review all received applications to assess candidates’ qualifications, experience, and skills, shortlisting all viable applications for further phone or video-call screening before we provide you with a list of suitable interviewees.
